If you want custom fields in the main edit section, I recommend to request such feature from the Core team.
Additional menu item for custom fields is a plugin way. There is no setting, which you could change in order to have custom fields in the main edit section.

@Nicolas Has there been any movement on this from the core devs. Custom fields in the profile / required fields at time of registration are so direly needed!

Craig Cook

@Nicolas Is there anyway to use your custom fields plugin but not have the fields editable? I plan to calculate the value outside of nodebb and update the database value.

Basically a read only value - similar to reputation

Nicolas

Do you want to mix them? I mean, to have "editable" and "non-editable"?
If every custom field is "non-editable" you could just customize your theme.

Maybe it will be helpful - https://community.nodebb.org/topic/4337/nodebb-plugin-ns-custom-fields-ns-custom-fields/42?page=3

Would it be possible to have this display the birthday value that users enter?

Nicolas

@teh_g Birthday is part of the core. The main idea of Custom Fields is to add extra fields.

Birthday actually doesn't get displayed oddly enough. Just age is displayed. I'll poke around elsewhere though!

julian

Birthday, would be nice as a plugin, and then removed from core

@Nicolas I can't seem to get this working on my 1.4.5 install. I get a 404 for the ACP template:

404 NOT FOUND
Route	Count
/assets/templates/admin/plugins/custom-fields.tpl	1

UPDATE:
Had to do a ./nodebb build after install and now it is showing up! Thanks!

Nicolas

Version 5.0.0

Summary: update is about a compatibility. Also, there was a critical issue, which would prevent latest NodeBB ACP from compiling.

Compatibility with NodeBB v1.5.0
Remove extra payment method from a Donation section
Update development dependencies for ACP panel

@nicolas Great plugin. Is there any way to let users spice up their profiles by adding:

their pictures/videos gallery
share their status updates like fb status updates
Basically let users share their stuff from life on their user profile page.

Is there any other plugin already which lets us do this? @fais3000

Nicolas

What you have described, would be a different plugin. Ability to have an interactive profile page, like a Facebook wall.

faizanzahid

@nicolas Yes that interactive plugin would be awesome! i really love your plugins and i am going to give you donation too.. i am using ns awards and ns spoiler, u can let me know via which plugin do u want me to donate u from

faizanzahid

@julian oh yes birthday would be cool, why did u guys remove it from core

faizanzahid

@nicolas is this fully compatible with node bb 1.9.2 persona theme?

Nicolas

Does this plugin work with write api? if so what would be the data to post to modify? Because; _uid=2&steamid=test or _uid=2&customFields[0].steamid=test"

The key doesnt seem to work.

So I was looking into it, basically need to add routes etc, your code base is deeply confusing to me. So I'll just request and hopefully in the future youll add it

@Nicolas Can you please add custom fields routes to allow access via nodebb write api pretty please

julian

@Nicolas @Joykiller Ah yeah, write API listens for some hooks if you want to add your own routes to the Write API

Seems a little redundant because you could just attach the route to app yourself in your init handler, but... well, there it is.
